My faith is being tested. But giving up is not an option. I don’t know how to surrender. I had to be strong at a young age. Strength and determination are easy for me to possess. I have nothing to worry about. I will battle until the end.
I haven’t experienced what I’m experiencing now. But a fight is a fight. Faith doesn’t promise us there won’t be trials; and faith doesn’t promise there won’t be loss. Faith promises we will get through. My faith may be tested by fire. Still I can’t give up!
